no quarrels in the Democratic party
Every Democrat seemed to know wht
would be his candidate in 1888, and al
were satisfied. lApplause.l He eulo
would have honored the office of Gov
ernor. After speaking Of the yariou.
candidates for Governor, he said al
was not harmony in the RepuDli'
can party. Every tomahawk and scalp
ing knife, he declared, was sharpened fol
the fight at Toledo next week. His refer
ence to the Presidential contest between
Blaine and Sherman was applauded. He
charged that Governor Foraker's admins.
tration had been permeated by desire to
| promote the interests of the Republican
party rather than the interests of the peo.
pie. Referring to Cleyeland's administra.
ton, he said that SO we'll had its power
been used that now it has little, if any,
| opposition except from those who expect
to ask favors from the Republican party.
| About civil-service reform he said:
1 While all Democrats give the administration
| hearty support, there are many who would
feel better satisfied if all the Republicans re.
manning IN Office were promptly turned out and
| their places filed by Democrats AS to this
feature of tho situation the resolves of this con.
| vtntion ought not to be uncertain in meaning OF
